A few months ago we got to be a part of Jeremy + Michelle’s incredibly intimate elopement at Los Poblanos and, dang, was it an absolute dream.
Long before these West Coast cuties were saying “I do” in the Southwest, Jeremy and Michelle first met 15 year ago (!) in California where they both worked at a yacht club. Jeremy had been hired as a Sailing Director and Michelle, who was home for the summer from college, was hired as a Junior Sailing Coach. They worked in this same place together for the next four summers and spent a whole lot of time sailing together. Michelle eventually moved to San Francisco after college, but these future lovebirds still kept in touch.
Even though they talked about moving to the same city to pursue something beyond a friendship, Michelle got accepted into grad school in England! Jeremy being the best partner on the planet, was incredibly supportive of Michelle’s journey and once she finished her program (and decided that she had enough of sailing in freezing weather), Michelle moved back to Southern California. The rest is history as these two babes never parted again!
For their sweet day at Los Poblanos, it was just Jeremy and Michelle (and us of course!). They had planned a tiny ceremony back home in California about a week after they eloped, so they wanted their New Mexico day to be a surprise for their friends and family. These two picked some of the most stunning yet minimalist details for their day and we were over the moon about it. From those neutral toned florals to the dreamiest sheath and lace wedding gown (that Michelle buttoned up by herself with her hands behind her back!!!) to Jeremy’s simple and classic wedding attire, we loved every inch of this day. After their sweet vows, these two put fresh soil and water into an apple tree they had brought all the way from California as a way of signifying their new life together. We got to finish the day off with the most fun romantics in ALL of our favorite Los Poblanos corners.
We’re big fans of tiny elopements at our favorite places and even bigger fans of sweethearts like Jeremy and Michelle. Thank you for creating the prettiest little day, cheers babes!!!
